We wish that thil delicacy towards the character of ab kcut Ofiicers had always marked the charaCier of some, of our Contemporaries. it. cannot be forgot. ten with what zeal the absent Sir Alakfpt WEL. 1418Le4 Wl3 attacked, - that tiis services were depre, gated, that his military cliaraCer was traduced, and that he was represented as, a man only fit to be ern. rloyd, in regutating the Pojice of Dublin. Nay, 'the. Attacks, were even extended to all his relations-- taut Sit Awrutr VitrPLLEBLEY and his relations wore guilty of the unpardonable crime of supporting tho ~~~~~ present Ministers: With respea to the late Sir JOIN Moose, whose loss we deeply lament, and, to Whose - military talents and personal courage we have been always ready to do justice, we defy our Opponent to seleCt a single passage from this Paper which can be construed into an insidious attack upon his charaeLtr. The essential importance of a , large disposable force, in'the present situation of this Country and of all Europe; cannot for a moment be doubted i ,80 4, it must : give the tittnost satisfaCtion to. the Nathan to hud ill,ttisters clireCling their: attention at once to this great obj , A. The plan submitted to the House of Commons last night by Lord CASILEIpACriI iy admirably calculated to etre& this important por pose, and will, we are persuaded, obtain the sane tion of the ptiblie in general, as well as of all Men who ... are conversant with the subjea, and aware ,of the ne cessity of the measure: The plan is so fully developed In our Parliamentary Report, that we need only refer qur Readers to that,part of our Paper. But we may bespertnitted to say. a few words upon a measure that not only promises complete siAccess in the least , oppressive way., but that has:indeed obtained the sanction of 'experience. Tho great point is . to pro cure an adequate supply of effeaive reeruit4 from the Ilegular Army, and tliia can be best accom plisbed by his Lordship's pr o po al of permitting' Men to pass from the Militia i n to the Line. Those in the Militia haying acquired military habits, tar from being averse to the Replier Service, will' •tnost probably be atixiotts to engage in it. tiln the. other hand, those who have never bcen in the Army, will of course first prefer the Militia . Service. lichee it will be easy to repair the drains, from .the latter serVit4ll l hut if men should not be found volutitarily to enlist in the IN.lilitia, in tine time, and to the requisite amount, the old sys, 7 , ten of ballot, according to his torclship!q, suggestion,, is; still to he the final rcsouree,hut,unde(such 'pp ? ' difications as will render ;t much leen irksome than at forme! peria4s. The tininber which his, Lord ship proposes thns" to tranfpr from JAL.. Militia into the Line, is twenty-eight "khousand men. In eider to prevent the necessity of resorting to the ballot tiffg system for supplyirig the r and to oh. viatea pecuniary pressure on the different Counties, bounty of ten guineas diall be paid to each Vointitt : er, from the public purse, bit ifit'shou t ld be -found absolutely necessary to 'resume the ballot, the ten, uineas are to be allotted to each ballot ted man, if he should be disposed to serve himself, or, to enable , him to obtain a subuitute. This plan is so simple in itself, and promises' so etreCtually to koep the two branches of 'Military Service npon an adequate foot that we cannot anticipate any,reasonable objec- Clot) ticz it, and the Public will look up with increased respea to the Noble 1 who is not disposed to, its. &lige hint ~ clf io'tho pursuit of a: visionary plat; zte of specious but impraaicable theory, 'but to build his measure upon dui solid ground of tried experience. • His MA Jy.$TY did not come to town yesterday, as Was e!speaett, it being represented to his MAJESTY daily ie the morning, that the roads bet Ween Wind. sor and I.,ondon were in ,ndlingerous state, in mi n k parts almm.t impassable, the water and now being up to the horse:i bellies. kits MAJKSTY'S intention was net known: in London till about half past iweve o'cloc.k, when Mr. W.tosTAvv the.

The circumstances, as stated by Mr. WIGLEY, were these: The affidavits alledged, that the parties re , sided in the same neighbourhood ; the Plaintiff was a, Gentleman possessing 5401. a year, and the De , fenciant was a Clergyman. On the.3d of Norm.; ber the Plaintiff went out for the purpose of having a days shooting. •In the course of his amusement, her. was accosted by the Defendant, who tpld .hi - rn ho had no right to shoot on that land,• as he was the Lord of the Manor; and it he did not depart imme , : diately,. be would shoot him. .The Plaintiff quietly went of the ground, and was going towards his carriag6, when the Defendant followed him, le.:- ve.nedhis:piece at him, threatening to shoot him, and called him " a rascal and a scoundrel." Oh the 25th of the same month he went to the Magistrite; of Beverley, to lodge his complaint: On hilt en trance into the room, he found tbe Defendant there; and the Magistrates for some time objected to take the plaintiff's information. At length they took cross-informations. It was also alledged, that the Magistrates called the Plaintiff's .proceeding.
